Republicans sharpen tactic in Amsterdam – Helsingborgs Dagblad

One strategy is to take advantage of the seemingly positive royal news:

– People like dresses, wedding and children. But every time something happens in the royal families increases the number of members of the republican movement. In the Netherlands doubled its membership in connection with the belief shift. Many realized the absurdity of not choosing their head of state, says Jenny Grenander.

The goal, placing the last European Kingdoms of “garbage heap of history”, may still seem a long way away. Especially the British royal family is very firmly, to stand Jenny Grenander. The question is which monarchy abolished first.

– If public opinion continues our path should be 50 percent of the Swedish people to be for the democratization of the polity until 2024, says Jenny Grenander.
